Silverlake and Intel partner on edge security

Silverlake MasterSAM (Silverlake) has announced the launch of Silverlake Appliance (SIA) X-300 PAM, the first appliance developed based on Intel technology, a new cybersecurity line that combines best of both technology bring “edge-to-cloud” and data center security to its customers.

The end-to-end PAM solution provides hardened security for its PAM technology stack to help protect against cyber threats while providing more consistent service performance and is ideal for small, mid, and large businesses and partners operating in multiple verticals.

Silverlake Group founder and group executive chairman Goh Peng Ooi says, “Organizations have not been able to keep pace with the steep increase in security risks and data breaches.

“Fragmentation of security offerings, hacker sophistication, the industrialisation of hacking, and the expansion of attack surfaces through billions of connected devices have increased the risk gradient that companies are exposed to. In January 2019 alone, 2.176 billion user records were leaked.

Today with SIA, we have shifted the focus towards enabling technology to meet these challenges. With Intel’s software and hardware technologies, Silverlake’s technology stack designed for PAM will form a cybersecurity PAM product line (SIA) that will be the foundation for our customers to reduce their company’s cybersecurity risks,” he says.

SIA X-300 PAM is a PAM solution that is powered by advanced Intel Xeon Scalable platform and Intel Software Guard Extensions (Intel SGX) technology that can fully automate provisioning and de-provisioning process, giving IT full power over the access rights of employees, partners, contractors, vendors, and guests. This not only speeds up the enforcement process but helps eliminate human error.

The scalable and modular architecture of SIA will ensure businesses can mitigate cyber threats with more deterministic performance and efficient cost containment.
